Update on life

[Gertrude]

I guess I'm better off either committing myself to a psych ward or suicide.... sorta leaning toward suicide. I can't get no help in any of my situations college counselors are no help, autism support boards are no help,contacted several organizations and they don't offer diagnostic services and there's no funds to help either and each had made clear I have to be diagnosed to even receive help, I'm constantly ignored on here though I know why but it's not helping my case, I still can't get a job due to my issues and can't hide my issues.

I'm freaking better off dead since I can't get the help I need       

Pm sent. Let me know how I can help.

Decided to email Vanderbilt's Kennedy Center that does autism testing/diagnosing to see if they take in adults and if not hopefully they'll recommend somewhere that does and at low cost.

Sweetie. We are listening and we do care.

As you've listed in you posts below, Walmart and Home Depot do have a positive position on staff diversity. I'd keep knocking on those doors, they will more likely open up.

Alternatively, have you thought about janitorial work or cleaning offices.? Yes, both are minimum wage, but hey, something is better than nothing, if it helps along the path. Even  babysitting can fit around your studies, but won't be fixed or regular.

Nothing will hire me and there's no opportunities for odd jobs where I live and I don't have the means or aptitude to start my own business either. As for cleaning I gotta be honest that's yet another thing that overwhelms me severely.

Well just found out that Vanderbilt doesn't screen adults for autism not like I could afford there anyway if they did.

Vanderbilt recommended this counseling place called Athena, also in Nashville, that happens to screen to adults. Sent them an email asking if there is anything they can do for someone like me that doesn't have a whole lot of money.

Hope to hear good news if not I may seriously consider suicide

Emily,

Why don't you try your GP.

I totally understand your frustration, and desperation, and this will be being picked up along with everything else. Explain how you are feeling, (angry, frustrated, desperate, depressed?), and see if they can do anything to help the world stop seeming so bleak, without checking in to your local unit. Hopefully college is going ok, draw on that sense of achievement sweetie, it will get you through.

Thing is I don't have a GP haven't had one for about ten years now.

And college is going fantastic it's the only thing keeping me going actually.

I really don't know what to do anymore

Well got an email response from this place that does screen adults can't afford it though even with their sliding scale the costs would still be too much.

Screw it I'm done I can't get any freaking help all everyone insists I do is get a job to pay the costs well here's the problem NO ONE WILL HIRE ME!!! Oh can't get a job why not start a business sure let me get onto that one thing though I DON"T HAVE RESOURCES OR THE MONEY TO DO SO!!!

At the end of the week I'm checking myself in and I'm not ever leaving I've had it with life
